An enjoyable, nice "Little" Movie

Tim plays a white collar criminal, just out of jail, trying to get his life back in order. He's a good actor, and the story is quite realistic in that it's somewhat semi-autobiographical>he's "been there" and knows the struggle and the strength it takes to avoid temptation. Jeanne Tripplehorn plays both his parole officer and his love interest; Sigourney Weaver is excellent as the protective big sister, and Ray Liotta is a bad guy. The scene stealers, however, are the kid, played by Kenton Duty, and the two parolees who work at the "Pirate Burger". The movie was really enjoyable; a few curse words and some s. innuendo, but no hard-core violence, no obnoxious special effects-just a good story with good characters.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Although I'm more "starwars" than "startrek" . I went to this movie because my 19 yr old son wanted to take me for Mother's Day. The movie captivates you from the beginning. You don't have to be a "trekkie" to understand it; there's a beginning-middle-and-an end. The special effects are fantastic, and the story line makes sense. My only negative comment is that it's Very loud-with non-stop action, and 2 hours of this makes for a pretty intense headache!
Yes, I recommend this movie.
